Let's Bake Together

Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti

Jump to recipe

Happy Tuesday! It seems like we’ve finally convinced summer to come to Portland and I’m so excited! It’s been dark, cloudy, cold and rainy here for far too long; I’ll probably be complaining that it’s too hot soon. Never satisfied.

How was your Father’s Day? We took my dad to a local Peruvian restaurant for lunch and it was amazing. I think we all ate more than we should have, but it was so good it was hard to stop. He’s a hard guy to get gifts for, so I decided to do what I do best and bake him a Father’s Day gift. After rummaging around my kitchen for ingredients, these chocolate hazelnut biscotti were born!

Studded with local toasted hazelnuts and drizzled with chocolate, these biscotti are Oregon in biscotti form. They’re pretty quick and easy to pull together so if you’re like me and ever struggle with gift-giving, you can whip these up and amaze just about anyone.

I’m honestly just here to help you all bake your way to someone’s heart. It works, trust me.

Hazelnuts might be my favorite nut. I don’t know exactly what it is about them, but I feel like I could probably eat them all day. They work so well in these biscotti and pair perfectly with a little hint of almond from the almond extract. Channel your inner Oregonian and grab yourself some hazelnuts. You won’t be disappointed.

Muffin time! I really love a good muffin. It probably comes from my…ambivalence…about frosting. Don’t get me wrong, cakes and cupcakes covered in frosting have their place in the world, I just prefer muffins filled with fruit and just a little chocolate. Blackberries and chocolate […]
